This past November, I explained why you might be better off waiting on any smartwatch purchases you were thinking about making. The gist of it: Apple's launch of their Apple Watch will have a huge impact on the smartphone market. Given the gravity of the influence their hardware typically has on the rest of the market, it's very likely that what's available now will seem like a toy by comparison to what's out there after the Apple Watch becomes available in 2015. So: wait and see what crops up.
